Engaging Differential Lock
Fully depress the diff. lock pedal to
lock the transmission differential and
provide constant power to both rear
wheels when increased traction is
needed. Release the diff. lock pedal
when extra traction is not needed.
Depressing the brake pedal also
actuates the diff. lock pedal, resulting in
optimal braking action.
NOTE: Because of the load on the
internal engagement mechanism,
releasing the diff. lock pedal may not
always disengage the differential lock.
It may be necessary to slow the trac-
tor, or reverse the direction of travel, to
disengage the differential lock.
Using The Drawbar
Drawbar equipment must be hitched to
the tractor only at the hitch hole. See
Figure 13.

Mowing
WARNING: To avoid possi-
ble injury, never direct the
discharge of material toward
bystanders or allow anyone
near the machine while in op-
eration. Although the area
has been supposedly cleared
of foreign objects, small ob-
jects may be picked up and
discharged by the mower.
IMPORTANT: Do not engage the
mower deck when lowered in grass.
Premature wear and possible failure of
the ‘V” belts and PTO clutch will result.
Fully raise the deck or move to a non
grassy area before engaging the
mower deck.
This tractor can be equipped with one
of Cub Cadet’s high quality mowing
decks. The following information will
be helpful when using a Cub Cadet
mowing deck with your tractor.
For best results it is recommended that
the first two laps be cut with the dis-
charge thrown towards the center. After
the first two laps, reverse the direction to
throw the discharge to the outside for
the balance of cutting. This will give a
better appearance to the lawn.
Do not cut the grass too short, as the
mower will tend to scalp the grass.
Short grass invites weed growth and
yellows quickly in dry weather.
Mowing should be done with the
engine at full throttle. Do not mow at
high ground speed.
During certain times of the year and
under some conditions, the mower
may leave streaks of uncut grass.
Streaking may occur when attempting
to mow heavy weeds and tall grass.
Under these conditions it may be
necessary to go back over the cut area
a second time to get a clean cut.
The following practices will help
eliminate streaking:
• Mow the area more often so the
grass doesn’t get too tall and heavy.
• Operate the tractor at full throttle
and slower forward speeds.
• Keep the blades sharp and replace
the blades when worn.
